We address two longstanding open problems, one originating in PL topology, another in birational geometry. First, we prove the weighted version of Oda's \emph{strong factorization conjecture} (1978), and prove that every two birational…

In 1982 Macdonald published his now famous constant term conjectures for classical root systems. This paper begins with the almost trivial observation that Macdonald's constant term identities admit an extra set of free parameters, thereby…

It was conjectured by Emil Artin in the 1930's that every $d$-form $F(x_1, x_2, $\ldots$, x_n)$ over the $p$-adic field in more than $d^2$ variables has a solution that is not $(0, 0, \cdots, 0)$ (non-trivial solution) over the $p$-adic…

In 1938 E. T. Bell introduced "The Iterated Exponential Integers". He proved that these numbers may be expressed by polynomials with rational coefficients. However, Bell gave no formulas for any of the coefficients except the trivial one,…

In this note, we study a certain class of trigonometric series which is important in many problems. An unproved statement in Zygmund's book [5] will be proved and generalized. Further discussions based on this problem will also be made…

We modify the proof of the basic lemma of a paper of Saks and Zygmund on additive functions of rectangles.

The Collatz conjecture is a famous math problem that was introduced by Lothar Collatz in 1937, and nobody has yet succeeded in proving or disproving it. In this article, I will analyze this problem with a new approach and I will discuss my…

In 1953 K. Oka IX solved in first and in a final form Levi's problem (Hartogs' inverse problem) for domains or Riemann domains over $\C^n$ of arbitrary dimension. Later on a number of the proofs were given; cf.\ e.g., Docquier-Grauert's…

In 1978, Apery has given sequences of rational approximations to $\zeta(2)$ and $\zeta(3)$ yielding the irrationality of each of these numbers. One of the key ingredient of Apery's proof are second-order difference equations with polynomial…

In this short note we have proved an enhanced version of a theorem of Lorentz [1] and its generalization to the multivariate case which gives a non- uniform estimate of degree of approximation by a polynomial with positive coefficients. The…

Since its first use by Behrend, Bryan, and Szendr\H{o}i in the computation of motivic Donaldson-Thomas (DT) invariants of $\mathbb{A}_{\mathbb{C}}^3$, dimensional reduction has proved to be an important tool in motivic and cohomological DT…

E565 in the Enestrom index. Translated from the Latin original, "De plurimis quantitatibus transcendentibus quas nullo modo per formulas integrales exprimere licet" (1775). Euler does not prove any results in this paper. It seems to me like…

We give another bit of evidence that forcing axioms provide proper framework for rigidity of quotient structures, by improving the OCA lifting theorem proved by the author in late 20th century and greatly simplifying its proof. In the…

We prove a modified version of Turbiner's conjecture in three dimensions and we give a counter-example to the original conjecture. The Lie algebraic Schr\"odinger operators corresponding to flat metrics of a certain restricted type are…

Let $P\in \mathbb Z[X]\setminus\{0\}$ be of degree $\delta\ge 1$ and usual height $H\ge 1$, and let $\alpha\in \overline{\mathbb Q}^*$ be of degree $d\ge 2$. Mahler proved in 1931 the following transcendence measure for $e^\alpha$: for any…

We settled a conjecture of Feigin, Wang and Yoshinaga, appeared in the preprint "Integral expressions for derivations of multiarrangements" (arXiv: 2309.01287v2).

In a recent paper, Merca posed three conjectures on congruences for specific convolutions of a sum of odd divisor functions with a generating function for generalized $m$-gonal numbers. Extending Merca's work, we complete the proof of these…

Zaremba's conjecture (1971) states that every positive integer number $d$ can be represented as a denominator (continuant) of a finite continued fraction $\frac{b}{d}=[d_1,d_2,...,d_{k}],$ with all partial quotients $d_1,d_2,...,d_{k}$…

We present a streamlined, slightly modified version, in the two-variable situation, of a beautiful, but not so well known, theory by B\"{o}gel, already from the 1930s, on an alternative higher dimensional calculus of real functions, a…

The Image Conjecture was formulated by the third author, who showed that it implied his Vanishing Conjecture, which is equivalent to the famous Jacobian Conjecture. We prove various cases of the Image Conjecture and show how it leads to…
